Try looking by size. (MV85) The XII has not been mfg since 2003, so very few vendors put info in the catalogs now, but some items still are available , Tires , batteries, filters, bulbs, ECT..

Interesting. I see that tires in our size (the XII that is) are still available to buy from the various dealers but are not listed on Metzler's website. Maybe it's a website thing?

Or, maybe Metzler is mad over the tongue lashing they received from many Voyager riders over the chunking problem they wouldn't stand behind. :thk:

I saw that to, thought maybe dealers had old stock tires left over.
